I want to die

by nikki   Jun 26, 2012


I can't bear the hurt, I can't stand the pain
A feeling of sadness I can't explain.
This is a life in which I walk alone
shattered and broken
Always angry for no reason at all
Constantly wanting to end my pain
Fighting with myself again, and again,
Nothing I do can make her proud
There's no silver lining on her clouds
I'm a rainstorm filled with dark black skies
And a haunting rainfall full of lies
I only wish I could make her see
I'm trying hard so I can be
Someone she that can trust and love
Instead she tells me I'm not good enough
Everything I do is a wrong decision
She constantly tells me I'm not living
The path that she truly wishes I'd take
But she doesn't understand I'm just one big mistake
If I could I'd erase myself from here
I wouldn't have to live this fear
I want to be skinny
And always happy, fun, and pretty
Instead I look at myself in the mirror
Disappointed in the reflection that appears
It's hard to live when you don't love who you are
Wishing that you could change it all
Every day I make a mental note
How much would I actually be missed, if I decide to go
And how much more I can take before I fall over the edge
How much longer can I last?
Before my life becomes one of the past.
when the blade slices deep across my skin all the pain and all my thoughts and worrys slip away everything is calm and i feel at peace when i see the blood i feel free and when the cuts start to heal it makes me hopeful that i will someday heal it feels so much better to feel at ease everything just seems to go blank and my head starts to clear and at times i completly fade out and then im at full ease but its a complicated task to pull off unless i go deep the only way i can truly be free is to take the leap and end whats left of me

    I just lost my father Nov. 10th and had to check my self in a hospital cause I could not deal with it so I thought. I have learned ways to cope with life in many ways, reading this makes me think how lucky I am to still be here. Very well said and written. No one knows till they go through it there selfs. I'm blessed today and hope you are as well!

    Reading this poem i see who i was. fighting to be the perfect girl for my mom. struggling with anorexia because i thought i was fat and a depressed girl with scars on her arms. one day you will get to happiness hun because i made it and i was one the edge. so fight it hun because if you leave you will be missed. embrace who you are and dont try to reach ridiculous expectations because its not worth it. there are always people who are going to love you. right now someone loves you more than anyone has or ever will in your life. his name is Jesus and he loves you for who you are in him.

    People are always going to be against you. You have to learn to see past that, and find what you want for yourself. Don't judge your self-worth based on what others want. It isn't worth it. There's so much more to life than that! You just have to look past the people trying to hold you back. Don't give her the satisfaction of knowing she broke you! Be strong!
